Soxmom:

You said:

"Hi Melody. I m sorry you are feeling so badly."

That's what's so confusing. I FEEL PERFECTLY FINE!!!

I now have two thermometers that give me two distinctly different readings. And you are the only one who diagrees and says the oral reading is correct.

How come everybody else I speak to say "no, rectal is correct, and if you use a regular themometer orally, you have to add one point"???

Maybe when a person uses a digital thermometer orally, THEN THAT'S CORRECT!!

Well, I did and I'm lower than normal with a digital themometer used orally.

My god, I can only imagine what will happen if I put the darn thing under my arm!!!

lol

Oh, I asked the pharmacist.

Someone I know uses a laser termperature thermometer, do you know anything about that?"

she looked at me like I lost my mind.

Oh my god, even the pharmacists are clueless now.

Please bring back doctors who made house calls and moms who gave us Bay leaf teas!!!

lol

P.S. You're GONNA LIVE THIS. Took it again, (the lower end, lol), and it's 99.2. That's 30 minutes after it was almost to 100 range.

Maybe I'm a CHIMERA??. Two people in one body. lol

It's like I'm obsessed with temperature readings.

I would have been a perfect candidate for one of those ovulation tests when you take your temperature all the time. lol
